Techniques for drx-augmented low-power wake-up signal pdcch monitoring

A method for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:

• receiving, from a network entity, control signaling indicating at least one of:
• a first set of low-power wake up signal (LP-WUS) monitoring occasions associated with a discontinuous reception configuration at the UE, the discontinuous reception configuration comprising a plurality of discontinuous reception periods, wherein the first set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions is usable for triggering a first set of downlink control channel monitoring occasions of the discontinuous reception configuration, and
• a second set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions, wherein the second set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions is usable for triggering a second set of downlink control channel monitoring occasions that are separate from the discontinuous reception configuration;
• receiving an LP-WUS within one of the first set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions or the second set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions;
• and
• monitoring for a downlink control channel message within a downlink control channel monitoring occasion from the first set of downlink control channel monitoring occasions or the second set of downlink control channel monitoring occasions based at least in part on reception of the LP-WUS within the first set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions or the second set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code at a user equipment (UE), the code comprising instructions executable by one or more processors to:

• receive, from a network entity, control signaling indicating at least one of:
• a first set of low-power wake up signal (LP-WUS) monitoring occasions associated with a discontinuous reception configuration at the UE, the discontinuous reception configuration comprising a plurality of discontinuous reception periods, wherein the first set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions is usable for triggering a first set of downlink control channel monitoring occasions of the discontinuous reception configuration, and
• a second set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions, wherein the second set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions is usable for triggering a second set of downlink control channel monitoring occasions that are separate from the discontinuous reception configuration;
• receive an LP-WUS within one of the first set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions or the second set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions;
• and
• monitor for a downlink control channel message within a downlink control channel monitoring occasion from the first set of downlink control channel monitoring occasions or the second set of downlink control channel monitoring occasions based at least in part on reception of the LP-WUS within the first set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions or the second set of LP-WUS monitoring occasions.
